I’m a 27-year-old thinking of going back to school for a totally new field. My original B.A. in Spanish (2012) is from UT Austin, but after not doing much with it and having more time to think about what I want to do, I’ve decided to become a Registered Dietitian.
I’m planning to take a few classes at my local community college now to test the waters before applying, but I’m unsure if I should take some prereqs and apply for a master’s or do the full monty and get a second undergrad degree. I’ve only looked at UT’s programs, but I’d have to take a considerable number of classes to get a second ugrad degree at UT but I feel I would really be prepared for a master’s by just taking the prerequisites.
Thoughts?
